The sweet smell of victory
I'm a "regular" guy, if you know what I mean. It's something I'm quite proud of. In fact, I'm at least three times a day, pretty much after every meal kind of regular. One of the ways I've developed this by giving myself "incentives" for said regularity. At home its SI. At work it's a little game I like to to call Bubble Breaker. For those of you who aren't familiar with Bubble Breaker, it's a game of strategy and skill in which you must click on bubbles of the same color, and create strings of bubbles to achieve the highest score. It's a hard game. My previous high score was 306 (very respectable within this community). On Thursday I had Dewey's Pizza, which prompted some regularity immediately following. I normally get two or three rounds in a session. This session was going fairly well, when suddenly I realized I had a serious round going on. Bubbles were bursting everywhere, in 30 and 40 point pops. My heart started to race. Could this be it? I kept focused, ignoring the fact that my legs were going to sleep. 250, 280, 290...suddenly I blew past 300 like it was standing still. Ladies and gentleman, my new high score on Bubble Breaker is 354! Unbelievable! I have yet to talk to anyone who has achieved such a feat. I stood in triumph, my legs tingling with the sweet tingle of no blood reaching them for the last 15 minutes. I left the stall exhilarated, immediately looking for someone to share the experience with. I couldn't really find anyone, so I bring it to you, humble reader. I will keep you posted on any new high scores in the future.
What can you learn from all this? Two things...1. I am better than you at Bubble Breaker. 2. I highly encourage you to incentivise yourself towards regularity. Your doctor would be proud (just watch out for hemorrhoids).

This is a lie. I can PROMISE YOU this is a lie. This person wants to insert his superiority over me for OBVIOUS reasons, and he is LYING. A 602 is not humanly possible... top

I have seen the screen. I stand in disgrace. This person, this dR, has humbled me. You are, sir, the most excellent Bubble Breaker in history... top
